How Shower Pan Leak Cleanup Works in Locustdale

Mold risk rises when moisture remains in a closed floor assembly. A measured dry-out tracks wood and drywall, not just the visible bathroom finish.

1. Remove surface and pooled water

   A wet room below the bath may need protection while water is recovered upstairs. The crew considers both levels in the removal plan.

2. Map the hidden wet materials

   Cabinet bases and floor edges can hold water after a spill. The crew records affected points for later comparison.

3. Open layers holding water

   Swollen baseboard can hide a damp wall edge. Removing damaged trim can reveal the material that still needs drying.

4. Dry and verify the structure

   The crew monitors the opened floor or wall rather than closing it after the surface looks dry. Drying documentation stays with the job record.
